THAT OTHER HONEYMOON KILLERS 45 I WANTED YOU TO HEAR

As mentioned in our previous post, it’s Detailed Twang’s semi-informed opinion that NYC’s HONEYMOON KILLERS put together two very outstanding 45s during their near-decade in action, surrounded by a supporting cast of lesser singles and LPs. In addition to “Get It Hot / Gettin’ Hot”, posted here, there’s the excellent “Vanna White (Goddess of Love) / You Can’t Do That”, released in 1991 on Sympathy for the Record Industry records. Sympathy often got the bottom-rung material from an artist’s catalog, given as the label was to putting out a half-dozen or more new records every single month. Sometimes there just weren’t that many good songs to go around, but Sympathy kept putting out records anyway. This Honeymoon Killers scorcher was obviously one of the label’s better efforts, and the band’s as well. See what you think by playing or downloading both sides.
